Wedding outfit 3 years ago

I made a skirt to wear to a wedding which I think looks really good. DH was dubious about it because the material is so bright, but I thought it was great for a summer wedding.

Unfortunately it didn’t go as planned. I made the same pattern recently and that went really smoothly, but this didn’t. I used the same size pattern as the previous skirt, but I must have altered the first one after cutting it out because the new one was definitely a hipster skirt which was unfortuante because I didn’t want to show my tummy at the wedding. The zip, waist band and hem all went wrong. I don’t think you can tell, but I’m certainly thinking of taking some of it apart and finishing it better

Looks like a great looking skirt!

Love the flower printed fabric. Great job on making a super outfit for the weding. Very stylish and creative. I just love how people can make an outfit by sewing and hemming fabric like on Project Runway. BTW-How long did it take to make this beutiful looking skirt? Nice work you should be proud of yourself.

I could have done it in a day if I’d put my mind to it, but it actually took me a couple of weeks doing a bit here and there. It appears to be taking me longer to unpick it so I can sort the size out.
